RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 10. WORKERS RIGHTS
The EU aims to achieve a ‘level playing field’ by upholding social rights for workers & people in general. By joining a bloc that safeguards fundamental rights, an independent Scotland would ensure wellbeing of workers at home and across Europe. #EuropeDay2022

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 8. SCIENCE AND RESEARCH
For centuries, Scotland has punched above its weight in research & innovation. As part of the EU - in funding programmes such as Horizon - Scottish Universities can attract leading researchers and collaborate on solving collective problems.

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 7. ENERGY
Scotland has 25% of Europe’s marine energy potential which would be a key source of income as well as helping Europe end dependency on Kremlin-controlled oil & gas - strengthening EU’s climate AND geo-strategic security.

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 6. TAKE PART IN SETTING STANDARDS
EU regulations protect consumers, workers & environment & allow goods to be sourced in EU States without bureaucracy, tariffs, or border checks. Instead of PM’s plan for ‘bonfire of EU laws’, Scotland would uphold EU standards. #EuropeDay2022

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 5. TRADE
The Free Trade Agreements proposed by the UK Government will not come close to making up for the loss of EU trade post-Brexit.
By re-joining the Single Market and Customs Union, Scotland would re-open its economy and exporters to EU-states. #EuropeDay2022

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 4. BRING DOWN BARRIERS
Scottish voters rejected Brexit but the UK Government has pursued an economically damaging ‘Deal’ which will reduce the UK’s GDP by 4% - twice the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We can only undo this harm by Scotland rejoining the EU. #EuropeDay2022

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 3. RESTORATION OF FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT
Close to my heart cos of hubby Hans! ❤️
By re-joining the EU, Scots would be able to LOVE, travel, work, study or live in any other EU/EEA country, without visa red tape and Scottish businesses could hire the talent they need. #EuropeDay2022

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 2. EQUALITY WITH ALL EU STATES
Unlike in the UK, an independent Scotland would truly be an equal partner in the EU and would seek to be a progressive voice and role model internationally - promoting greater consensus, equality, and respect.

RT @Dr_PhilippaW: 1. SOLIDARITY WITH A GLOBAL A-TEAM
The threats facing our societies are global, and the EU leads progressive action to solve common challenges. An independent Scotland would be far stronger in the EU than in a post-Brexit UK’s self-inflicted isolation. #EuropeDay2022

RT @olafdoesstuff: 🇪🇺🏴 Happy #EuropeDay!
I was born in Poland, studied abroad in Sweden, and Scotland is my home. All made possible by the EU.
It's not about where we come from, but where we're going together - and I'm confident Scotland will rejoin the European family of nations soon.

RT @TerryReintke: HAPPY EUROPE DAY 🇪🇺
So many things are not yet right about the EU, but still:
Every day of my life I am thankful to the people who created this peace project. Who fought for a union built on freedom and democracy. Who continue to strengthen it today.
This is for you ❤️
